Question

I have unordered list which has bulleted text within. I need to indent the list items in line. However for long running text, the style is not working as expected. I should make it aligned within the border box. Here is the css code

ul{
    background-color: #FFFFFF;
    border: 1px solid black;
    border-radius: 3px 3px 3px 3px;
    list-style: disc inside none;
    padding: 10px;
}

Here is the example HTML

<div style="padding:20px">
    <ul>
        <li>Should be minimum of 8 characters</li>
        <li>A long running text A long running text A long running text A long running text A long running text</li>
        <li>Should have at least one number</li>
    </ul>
</div>

Is this what you are looking for?

ul{
    background-color: #FFFFFF;
    border: 1px solid black;
    border-radius: 3px 3px 3px 3px;
    list-style: disc outside none;
    padding: 10px 10px 10px 25px;
}

I changed the list style to “outside” and gave some extra padding to the left.
